Echo

Such a beautiful story. I highly recommend listening to the audiobook to fully enjoy the musical components included throughout the novel.

The author did a truly phenomenal job presenting different stories and characters without losing the reader (or listener). Each primary character is connected by the common thread of a harmonica, which was cleverly woven throughout. I don't know that I've ever read a book quite like this one. There were tears, gasps, and sighs of relief as the story unfolded, and I enjoyed every “page”. Children and adults alike will come to love Otto, Friedrich, Mike, and Ivy. It's hard to recall when I last felt as content and filled at the end of a novel as I did with this one.
